Bleh. Apparently not caring what you do on other sites or even requiring any personal information isn't good enough for the state of Confusion^WCalifornia, so we have a shiny, new, temporary Privacy Policy posted on every page and linked at the top of the nav bar.

If you feel like prettying the language, layout, or whatever up before I get around to it, feel free to do so and submit a pull request.

    Plus it's fun to laugh at their lack of UTF-8 support.

    That is their saving grace. No emojis! Twenty years of archives ain't too shabby either...

    You make a compelling argument but having your code monkeys and editors look like retards every time someone uses a type of quotation mark or dash not found in ASCII isn't a good tradeoff IMO.

      Yeah, they should reject the submission than contains any of that junk and tell the guy to sanitize his input.
